pete.young Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Wow. So many nice basses go through this site that it's easy to get blase, but this one really did take my breath away. Have a free bump.
wombatboter Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Do you have a picture of the side of the neck ? Would like to know if it has dots between or on the lines.. Thanks..
Kev Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 [quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1390747272' post='2348901'] [size=4] You'll not find another! [/size] [/quote] I know...
warwickhunt Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 Tried photographing the side but the camera is useless in the present light but I can confirm the dots are where the frets 'should' be NOT between the frets as they would be on a fretted bass. They are white dots on the edge of the ebony board. If you still want pics, send me a PM and I'll see if I can get it sorted.
MarkusWarwick Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Waaaaaaaaay too nice..........unfortunate for me It aint Fretted

RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 One of the best Warwicks I've ever seen. Save the animal bump

Save the animal bump [/quote] I'm actually in the process of putting my MM Sterling fretless up for sale (which I was going to keep as a cheaper alternative to this) and if that goes first I'll likely end up keeping this... I only need one fretless!
B-aces Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Have a bump on me John! This is one of the best playing, best looking and best sounding basses I've ever had my hands on. If I had the money I'd buy it back for full price. Good luck matey.
